Three clawed fingers, a fading torso ending in a wispy tail, piercing green glowing eyes and a physical form that looks akin to black fire, one would think this was a villain you'd see in a children's book.

Essentially fear given form during the ages of survival amongst the human race, where terror was very prominent. The negative energies coiled in a focused collision of physical manifestation to form the spirit that grew in sentience, becoming the invisible but staple teacher of survival for the human race. He taught that fear was necessary in healthy degrees to live life to the fullest and was once worshipped by many. But he wasn't perfect... Fear isn't the only emotion he was made from. During the Dark Ages, violence, hatred and rage dominated, molding him into a dark terror that brought bloodshed in the night and murder in the woods, a trail of carnage to the unfortunate who crossed his path, his original purpose lost to him in memory. Over time he became but a shadowed monster deeming any positive purpose meaningless considering humans by nature did things of their own accord despite his teachings; he had no real purpose and any he thought to have was but a fleeting illusion. Now he was nothing but a monster of darkness that fed off of negative energy in order to maintain form and existence, delighting occasionally in sadistic acts. [/hider] [color=00a651]Personality:[/color] Knutik can be very laid-back, very reserved or very aggressive and sometimes believes he's above consequences, that is until the harsh reality hits him. His personality varies extremely according to whatever emotion becomes most prominent for him which can be as ever changing as the weather or even influenced by the negative emotions of others around him. It's whatever this prominent emotion is that determines whether he's shy, fearful, dangerous or cocky and can be quite unpredictable. Knutik often hoards valuables he finds/steals and is extremely protective of his collection. Losing just one of his treasures can spurn him into an infuriated and agitated state. His treasures are safely hidden within his own created realm known as "The Neath". [color=00a651]Physiology:[/color] Knutik is a physical being with powers, thus you can touch, feel and see him. He stands at 6 feet and 10 inches from head to wispy tail in his original wraith form and can be described to appear as though black fire is constantly but slowly dissipating off of him. Gravity affects him like any other physical thing, it's his use of magic that makes him fly. He is called a spirit because he is an animated being that doesn't inhabit a body, which lead many of his previous worshipers to believe him to be a stray soul trapped on the physical plane, which isn't actually true. He is physically made up of solid shadows that feel like cold silk to the touch and his 'heart' which behaves very much like a core is made up of fire. This fire is what produces the coloured glow to his eyes and mouth like a furnace within. Knutik isn't sure himself what the core is for since no matter what he shape-shifts into, it's always there. The only time it's not present is when he melts into the shadows. He discovered that the core transports to his realm during those times.
